Handmade Masculine Card with Chocolates
Welcome to Mitosu Crafts UK, thanks for stopping by. It’s Jay Soriano here sharing a masculine card idea with chocolates for The Spot creative challenge using Nothing’s Better Than stamp set.

Masculine Card with Chocolates
I took the neutral colours from the images to create my card on Very Vanilla base. To give a fresh take on this panel layout, I drew a pencil line vertically. And used this as a guide for my stamping and placements of the die cut elements.

How To Create A Masculine Card With Chocolates
- Score your card base in half then fold and burnish with a Bone Folder.
- Draw a pencil line vertically along the middle of the topper to use as a guide for stamping.
- Stamp the semi-circle fill design (‘lemon wedge’) along the pencil line in Sahara Sand Ink. 3 times on the bottom left and 3 times on the top right.
- Stamp the chocolates outline in Early Espresso ink then fill stamp with Soft Suede ink.
- Stamp the cookie and cup in Early Espresso ink on Basic White card. Then fill with Sahara Sand ink and Crumb Cake ink.
- Ink up the background design from Artistically Inked set with Crumb Cake ink. Apply hints of Early Espresso ink using a Sponge Dauber. Then stamp on another scrap piece of Basic White card.
- Die cut the cookie, cup and ‘Chocolate’ word with the dies from Love You More Than set and Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
- Tear off the sides of the Crumb Cake layer then adhere under the stamped topper on a slight angle.
- Add both pieces on the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Add the cookie die cut flat on the topper, the cup with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals and the sentiment using folded Mini Glue Dots.
- Stamp the sentiment on Sahara Sand card in Memento ink then snip to size.
- Finish the card with 3 silver Metallic Pearls.
